Review and my opinion so far:
 
As far as fighting system goes I made the comparison as follows:
 
WoW is to Softball
         As
AoC is to Major League BaseBall
 
WoW is to Touch Football
         As
AoC is to NFL
 
WoW is to Roller Hockey
          As
AoC is to NHL
 
Not Saying that AoC is better its just seems to take more quickness and reaction to play AoC while WoW is more click and wait. I can see everyone being able to play WoW (why it attracks females for its easy playing) while AoC is a bit more complicated. AoC is more combo moves and directional attacks for example enemy will be defending 1 or more directions so I have to know what is the weak side and then I want to attack that weak side(left, center, or right). Skill moves often required combos such as if I want to do a Enforce Strike I need to hit the Enforce Strike attack and then a second attack (left, center, or right) after to pull the move off. There is finishing moves that if you do a combo it will go off at certain times when fighting...ya'll know because blood will ooze down your screen. There is mount fighting also have not got there yet.
 
Its more mature in the fact that there is blood...lots of blood, mature language as you call quest npc "Bastards" and "Whores", every NPC you pick a quest up talks to you with voice so there is no reading, except when answering, there is loading between areas and cities, Guilds and Guild bases that you have to defend...and yes nudity. There is no seperation between race so every race can group with each other...talk...kill each other.

Don't get me wrong its still turn based, It just has more game play to attacking...more depth to say I guess.

barbarians are a dps melee class and I don't think anyone tried one...I haven't. You can only have 8 characters total which causes less server jumping, its seems. THough I am jsut trying out different characters

there are no sides, certain races can only be certain classes but there is no division amoung race. So basicly pvp is everyman for themselves type of pvp, it can get crazy. And yes after you kill some one you can send them a tell.
 
Tyranny is the sever and yes it is pvp server and pvp starts at like level 10-15.

You can even kill your own guild members if they aren't grouped
